Announcements1. Yoga Research - Investigating Mysore Style Practice and Emotional Health - Participants Needed
We, at the University of Groningen, are finally starting with our year study in the first week of March. Participation is easy and involves filling out an online questionnaire at 7 time points in 2 years. If you are practicing Ashtanga Yoga Mysore style (any experience level is welcome), please take a look at the research information sheet. Your contribution and time are very valuable and appreciated. Feel free to share with other Mysore practitioners. https://ugroningenbss.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_9Bx2G21y9Er1tMV.

Resources1. Ashtanga Yoga for Beginner's Mind (paperback version) by Kim Roberts
Ashtanga Yoga for Beginner's Mind is a guide to primary series with a section on shamatha meditation and commentary on how each practice informs the other. While appropriate for all levels of students, emphasis is placed on the importance of maintaining "beginner's mind." Rather than focusing on a linear approach, the book explores variations to certain postures that are not traditionally offered in the Ashtanga system, making the practice accessible to a wider audience.
